"Primal Spirit Moratorium Officially Over!

April 4th, 2004 thru November 4th, 2008    (Thank God for Barack Obama….)

Mary Lynn and I (Mickel and Mary Lynn Adzema are the ones that have been offering and maintaining this site since its inception in 1997) have changed a bit since we last were actively engaged on this site.

"Republicans Canned From Top Job....
Adzemas Reborn!"

One way of putting it is that a kind of rebirth occurred in our lives, not long after Bush-McCain was defeated.   More correctly, it was only after we’d seen Barack Obama officially take over as President, and we saw the sad, reviled figure of Bush leave Washington, that we found our lives transforming, in spite of ourselves.

I personally began writing and couldn’t stop (I’m the Mickel).  I mean I had no intention of it.  It just seemed that so much had been built up over the Bush years; so much wanted to be said but I had the feeling that no one was listening anymore, and I was aware that the AMA and HMOs had opted for antidepressants and psychotherapy was no longer offered anywhere except out-of-pocket. One-on-one therapy wasn't the only thing to be tossed when the right-wingers came in, for even our favorite liberal commentators were no longer invited to speak their minds on talk shows. Then the miraculous happened. 

I doubt if you’re reading this you weren’t also incredibly touched by that date: the Inauguration of Barack Obama, the first Black President of the U.S. But for me, after having watched him, the way he handled controversy, ethics, attacks, and all the rest, I knew he was the first President I could actually look up to in my life since Carter.... Kennedy, too, but I was too young with Kennedy to really understand. 

Obama has all the characteristics that we might expect in a leader if Primal Spirit had chosen him, for he shows a primal calmness, a spiritual compassion toward his attackers, and yet a primal “truthiness” to say what needs to be said when nobody else is saying it. 

There couldn’t be a greater change in our country than the difference alone that will come from the example of Barack Obama, after the horrible things that grew and were nurtured to power as a result of the example of George W. Bush being cast  as the dominant world template for eight long years. But that’s over….

And everything has changed.  It seems that Mary Lynn and I are finding some truth in our “theme song”:
 

“In spite of ourselves, we’re gonna end up a sittin’ on a rainbow,  

“Against all odds, baby, we’re the big door prize,

“We’re gonna spite our noses right off of our faces,

“Won’t be nothin’ but big ol’ hearts dancin’ in our eyes.” 

New Multimedia and Multigenre Vision for Primal Spirit; Lots More Content

So, tune in, if you’re interested, cause we got lots coming. How about a slew of new articles? Check out the links under the "Latest Greatest" Menu in the left column. How about articles with audio renditions by the author right on the same page? Would you care for some articles in the format of comedic monologue, with audio renditions as well; or articles with comedic inserts as perspective on the exposition, again with audio renditions by the author? How would you like video presentations of the articles, including discussion afterwards? These multimedia offerings can be accessed through the "MULTIMEDIA" link, also in the menus in the left column. Right now, they're also likely to be the ones in "Latest Greatest" as well.

Here, There, Everywhere...and Every Thing

Would you care for links to new sites -- also by us -- on topics related to Primal Spirit, with some offering products such as hard to get nootropics, anti-aging compounds, Parkinson's, Alzheimer, and Chronic Fatigue prevention products that really work? Check out the outside links for these; that's a menu in the right column. The sites that will have products, at this point, will be the Natural Self, Primal Return, and the other Natural Self site.

Please be aware that we are operating almost a dozen sites and blogs now, and some are much more developed than others. The ones with the most content, on this date, are "SillyMickel's Calling the Noble in Spirit..." (actually on Entertonement, but I have almost 20 new articles in audio format there - figure 20 hours or so of listening.) And they're all mp3, so they can be dowloaded to your mobile; by far it has the most new material, and will continue to. The five blogs have considerable content, except for the "SillyMickel and the PlanetMates" one, which might even change tonight. Primal Return, Apocalypse Emergency, Time Capsule, and Apocalypse Know have substantial content, and the rest, with an exception or two have at least one new lengthy article to make it worth your while, if you're interested.

The product sites mentioned, in fact, do not, on this date, have the products or the checkout in place, but that is our next project. So we're mentioning it (June 29, 2009), because we're planning for them to be functional in a week or less. That is not to say you might not want to check them out for the articles that we've begun posted there.  

"Prozac, no.... Natural Self, si"

Concerning the products, our proudest discovery is this state-of-the-science line of herbal-amino-natural compound mixtures that serve -- effectively, we've tried them; nothing else even compares -- as natural substitutes for the most common prescription drugs being madly scripted as panaceas by physicians, but having extremely harmful long-term effects.

Sometimes you need to fall asleep and can't; sometimes you need a tranquilizer to make it through your day. You're either using one and putting up with the dependency and feeling of unnaturalness, non-primalness, or you're afraid to get a prescription for fear of getting hooked. Well, how about something that works as good, has no side effects, and is not addictive, and is comprised of natrual compounds that have been used safely in other cultures for thousands of years?

Or how about an antidepressant as powerful as prozac, with no side effects and is completely natural, and doesn't need to be taken constantly to turn you into a different personality? How about a substitute for the Ritalin and Adderal (amphetamine) they are giving children for ADHD, which is just as effective in stimulating you and allowing you to focus but, again, not addictive, all natural?

Or a precise mixture of naturals similar to the ADHD product that you will like better than a morning cup of coffee, will not make you nervous, will make you feel like tackling your todo list and making short work of it, and is actually good for you? Or a substitue for Viagra that's harmless?

Anyway, these are just some things we've been researching for many decades but only now found things that were as powerful as these drugs but were safe and had no after effects or dependency let alone addictive potentials. I know, we thought it was too good to be true, too. Maybe the Universe, "God," "Higher Power," is letting us discover them now because of the unprecedented, never before so dire, just absolutely huge challenges we are facing now.

"Have You Heard Gaia's Been Looking for You?.... Needs a Hand.... She's in Trouble, and Especially Needing her Primal Allies

With the environment on the brink, and a real DoomsDay for ourselves and all species on this planet rushing toward us, we're going to need to be authentic, real, primal, and truthful. We're going to have to adopt primal ways of being, e.g., we're going to have to learn to be fearless in facing the horribles outside of us and commit to giving what we authentically can give to the challenge of all challenges, to save all life on this planet, including our own and that of our families; just as many of us faced the horribles inside, knowing that if we did not our lives would end miserably and tragically.

 
Just as we say Primal saved our lives, we're going to need our realness, our primal "truthiness," or, dare I say, our primal refusal to swallow the palliatives, distractions, trivialities, misinformation, and outright lies put out by the media bullshit-machines to protect the profits of their corporate and "filthy rich" owners. We're going to need to follow our Primal need to know and face the truth, whatever it is, knowing that only lies can kill you.

Well, when it comes to this kind of truth, lies will guarantee everyone's demise; our planet will become another Mars. The truth may not stop that, for it will require more than just you and I or other primal people, but certainly our primal stance to face truth is what Nature is needing right now. We are being called out by Gaia, all our fellow planetmates -- the other non-human beings we share this planet with -- Nature, and the "better angels" of our being (as Obama so richly expressed it one time) to put our Primal benefits into action on behalf of something other than ourselves.
